LD45 — Start with nothing

Fetch Quest by shaner421 2019-10-09T16:18:44Z

I didn't expect to like this but I actually did :D Good job ;)

You are Nothing by ectucker1 2019-10-09T16:23:01Z

This is amazing :O (I might be a bit biased cause I love ascii art ;) No but srsly, good job!)

Small Town by XCVZXC 2019-10-08T16:01:25Z

Amazing how you did this in such a short time...! :O If you port this to mobile and market it correctly, this could be huge. :) (I'm gonna keep it on my PC because I already love it as a time killer)

Good job!

Small Town by XCVZXC 2019-10-09T18:56:53Z

@xcvzxc I totally get it, I don't think I'd make a mobile game either except maybe a port of my PC game if it's requested :sweat_smile: (Or as a quick source to gain funding for a PC project)

Zen Man by Team Catwheel 2019-10-08T15:40:02Z

This is extremely satisfying!

The Blue Girl by gamebuilder 2019-10-09T16:20:47Z

Interesting! Good job :)

Small Town by Emiliabea 2019-10-08T15:55:54Z

I love your art style! The game itself was also alright :)

Nothing About Stage by nikita-lozhkin 2019-10-08T16:39:07Z

This was fun, like @tom-adams said, you could definitely make this a proper game when polished! Good job :)

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-08T04:36:47Z

Thank you @plepletier ! :) <3

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-08T16:31:42Z

Thanks everyone <3 I didn't expect that people would like it this much :) Now I definitely don't regret that I didn't sleep for a few days!! :laughing:

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-08T16:34:29Z

@mitya Thank you!!! The transitions seem to lag in that build, but I'm planning to fix it some day! And @nachtwitch I'm actually very inspired to start planning a full version of this at some point :)

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-08T17:07:55Z

@gargoyle-g Thank you! :smile: I have to check that out when I begin developing it further, great that you noticed that bug! :)

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-08T18:35:38Z

@dawnscream & @el-fideo-rubio Thank you!!! <3 I need to figure some other obstacles for the full game + make the story more solid :) But seriously, thanks so much :smile:

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-08T18:37:11Z

Thank you @fleshcarrot ! :clap: :ok_hand:

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-10T13:32:20Z

@cephalo @nick-lives Thank you!! :smile:

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-10T13:33:28Z

And it's awesome to hear that you liked the music!! I've previously published my music to Spotify and I'm considering doing it again :) (I also compose for other devs from time to time)

B4 THIS by Cafearatus 2019-10-12T13:01:08Z

@projectaroid Thanks!

Get off the Hook by RAC-Games 2019-10-08T16:26:28Z

If Valve would've done a game jam in their Half Life -era, I feel like this would've been it! Awesome :D

The first journey by Mercuryal 2019-10-08T15:36:10Z

It was fun to play! This would be very addictive as a mobile game with some extra features! :D

nothingEVERYTHING by PROJECTaroid 2019-10-08T18:46:35Z

What a cool way to turn an old concept into a new one! :) Good job!

SpaceShift by Dawnscream 2019-10-08T16:22:00Z

As a person who loves and makes synthwave, I think this game's awesome! So relaxing :)

Nothing In by Vatifasta 2019-10-08T15:45:14Z

I must say, the humor is so simple and plain that it's actually funny! I bet this game could be huge if marketing done correctly ;)

After scrapping by Alexsogge 2019-10-08T16:15:02Z

A good idea, but the execution lacked a bit. I'd be interested to see this as a more developed game :)

Big Bang by Kason 2019-10-08T16:11:34Z

A bit confusing :sweat_smile:

LD56 — Tiny Creatures

Pigeon Pummel by Griperis 2024-10-08T00:06:29Z

This is so calming, I love it :laughing:

Produce, Sell and... Goblins? by Obidiix-MinusInfinity 2024-10-08T17:54:45Z

This had nice cozy vibes :) The ldjam page version didn't open for me but on itch.io it worked!

Will It Run? by UseCondsomsKid 2024-10-10T23:18:16Z

Quite fun when you get the hang of it, and just like others have said, very impressive that you did this in C from scratch! It was a bit difficult to play because sometimes I had to "build" it multiple times before it worked. I think @hotaloca is right that the syntax could be even simpler so that you don't have to switch so much back and forth with the help tab, the job tab, and your code, or make it possible to keep the tabs open and switch them quickly with some keys :smile: Anyway, a great concept and amazing that you did this in C over the weekend! :smile:

Tokokyo by AlexHicks 2024-10-08T02:17:51Z

Amazing that you did this on a custom engine! I had the same thing happen that @gaverion was talking about, btw, but the audio and graphics are very cool :)

Perdita Creaturae by R1tz 2024-10-10T22:48:02Z

I really like the game! It would be great if you could have the two other characters start to follow you if you hold down Q or something when at the end of the levels they have to walk to the end :smile: The game is very intuitive and the idea is simple yet effective :)

Lab Rat by Shamiya 2024-10-07T23:33:05Z

The window is a bit small but hey, it kind of fits the theme :D I could play it easily when I just zoomed in the page, it was a cute game :)

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-07T22:43:29Z

Thank you @sid37 :) Glad to hear you enjoyed it!

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-07T23:40:35Z

Thanks @sted !! :)

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-07T23:49:55Z

Thank you @killofox ! Yes, I made the music :) I wish I could've done more with the audio modulation thing I coded but I didn't have time to compose more music, I will for sure use the real-time stem sync/mix thing in the future now that I have it :D

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-08T18:03:33Z

Thank you so much for your kind words! :) I feel so inspired to continue working on it!

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-08T18:25:44Z

Thank you all so much!! <3 Yeah @jared-saizdelamora the WebGL build is a bit janky, I was surprised that it worked at all considering that my plan was to only build it as a downloadable but then made the last-minute decision to build the web version for ease of access :laughing: Thanks for playing!

@firefalls thanks! Yes, I was thinking about making it very unhinged and creepy if the aggression develops too much :smile: It'll definitely lean heavily into the cute-horror-spectrum :D

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-10T22:33:54Z

Thanks! @hurp Thank you @obidiix-minusinfinity yeah, I wish I had time to do more during the jam :smile: I will probably develop it into a full game at some point. I noticed that latency too especially if you trigger many instruments simultaneously or play the web version some of them can be a bit off-beat :sweat_smile: Thanks for the feedback!

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-11T14:35:17Z

Thank you so much, @nazariglez :smile:

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-12T14:01:15Z

Thank you @shir0o23 :smile:

Papufel Energy Inc. by Cafearatus 2024-10-17T17:41:22Z

Thanks so much, everyone! :smile: Oh, that's so good to know that those can easily be missed @ninjavitis . I gotta make an indicator for it when I continue developing it! I'm so glad to hear that you all liked it :smile:

Soul Fuel by Kampffrosch 2024-10-08T17:04:58Z

I got an error that says "Failed to read the 'serviceWorker' property from 'Navigator': Service worker is disabled because the context is sandboxed and lacks the 'allow-same-origin' flag." here on ldjam but on itch it worked fine :)

The Ritual by krit1k 2024-10-08T01:53:25Z

Very nice atmosphere!

I'm a Porter for the Worst Dungeon Party in the World by cpaz 2024-10-08T17:27:57Z

I liked it! I'm impressed that you did all of it in just one weekend :) My GPU fans were screaming a little but I understand that a game made over a few days can't be very optimized :D However, the gameplay was fun and the sound effects were entertaining :) Good job!!

Wally's Woods by shaner421 2024-10-10T23:53:54Z

Very cool! I like the music and the art style :smile: The minigame is well-executed!

Buzzzy Buzzy Beez by jeroenpx 2024-10-08T18:01:43Z

The mechanics felt very intuitive :) It's a cute game!

Tiny Grab by barisflo 2024-10-08T02:25:56Z

Now THIS is a cozy game :D I like the feel of it and it looks really nice too

Pip Follicles by Arthur Tang 2024-10-08T02:31:02Z

What a fun take on the theme :D Nice job

G-news by Aune 2024-10-08T17:42:26Z

WHAT IS THIS?? :D Amazing!! Good job, you win everything, this is the best game I've seen here :laughing: I especially loved the soundtrack, and I had to give your composer a follow on SoundCloud :smile:

Defenders of the Crystal Skull by Imagicaine 2024-10-10T23:40:03Z

Very nice visual design! I like the idea, but the gameplay wasn't very balanced and I felt pretty invincible, but I believe that this could be a solid foundation for a very cool game when balanced and polished :smile: Good job!

Candy Quest by Lautaro Q 2024-10-10T23:29:28Z

I really like the visual style :smile: It's nice that the characters have quite distinct personalities!
